Standing by the bar, Akne clean a few cobwebs off the glasses. The Watering Hole has been dormant for a long time. For Akne, thismerely means that the wines have aged- even those that do not age well or at all. This far out in the desert, even a glass of vinegar is better than nothing at all. Looking around, Akne notes that dirt has filled the corners, the chairs are covered with dust and those tables that are not broken are laying on their sides. In short,its just like its always been. the Watering Hole is open for business.
